Title: F' Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms SNPs


1
F. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs)
  • F. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
  • F.1. Variation and inheritance
  • F.2. Lets watch a movie!
  • F.3. Why do we care? Mostly pharmacogenomics
    designer drugs!
  • F.4. The HapMap project
  • Read 3.2 of DGPB (including Math. Minute 3.3)
  • Read HapMap project page http//www.hapmap.org/wha
    tishapmap.html.en

    the video

F.1 Variation and Inheritance Genes and Alleles
  • A human egg cell and a human sperm cell both
    contain 23 single chromosomes. Fertilization
    brings these two sets of single chromosomes
    together to make 23 pairs of chromosomes in the
    embryo.

Life is more complicated recombination

F.1 Variation and Inheritance From Genotype to
Phenotype
Some human characteristics are controlled by just
one pair of genes Shape of the upper eyelid,
earlobe, color of iris and ability to taste.
Others are controlled by more than one pair of
genes (allele). A set of alleles inherited by an
individual is called a genotype. The way the
genes express themselves in the individual's
appearance is their phenotype.

F.1 Variation and Inheritance SNP Distribution
Low kb per SNP
5
F.1 Variation and Inheritance Genome Variations
  • Microsatellite A region where multiple mutations
    occurred.
  • Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) A single
    base mutation. Occurred in roughly 1 out of 1200
    bases.
  • Questions
  • If a SNP happens in the CDS of a gene does it
    always result in a different protein encoding?
    Explain your answer.
  • If a SNP appears outside the CDS, does it matter?

F.3. Why are SNPs Interesting?
  • Study of evolution
  • DNA Fingerprinting
  • Markers for disease or propensity for disease
  • Pharmacogenomics DESIGNER DRUGs

F.3 Why SNPs? Some definitions
Locus alleles (genes) Linkage How close two
loci are to each other on a chromosome. Linkage
Disequilibrium If two alleles (or two SNPs) tend
to be inherited than by chance then we say it is
in linkage disequilibrium. Haplotype The set
of alleles on a particular chromosome.
